Hi, friends and family! 

Thank you for stopping here to show your support and learn about what I will be doing this year as a Jesuit Volunteer or "JV"! I am so excited to announce that this August I will begin a year of service at Cristo Rey Philadelphia High School, a non-profit network of more than 30 high schools in metropolitans throughout the country that provide college-prep, Catholic education to low-income families. In Philadelphia, I will be working with the student body through campus ministry, facilitating retreats, and mentoring student leaders. 

All JV's live by the Jesuit pillars of spirituality, simple living, community, and social justice. This radical lifestyle inspired the alumni network of former JV's to affectionately coin the slogan "ruined for life!" about the program's transformational effects.

Thank you for considering a gift to support me, our partnering agencies like Cristo Rey, and the Jesuit Volunteer Corps. No gift is too small. I am especially grateful for your friendship and prayers as I embark upon this new chapter <3

"Each year, hundreds of young people make the decision to commit to a year or two of service with the Jesuit Volunteer Corps. Jesuit Volunteers (JVs) engage in vital service within communities around the country. Send Me to Serve (SMTS) has two primary functions: (1) To help incoming Jesuit Volunteers and their friends and families to connect more deeply with the mission of JVC; and (2) To raise funds in support of JVC, which will help us continue to partner with over 200 non-profit agencies and provide vital service to tens of thousands of people every year."
